I read up on a Neutron electric mower one time and they suggested having a
spare battery so that you would never be caught needing to just finish a
little spot. I thought that was a great idea. I think they sell them on a
website... you could find them on a google search I am sure. I found it..http://www.countryhomeproducts.com/TwoStepCategory.aspx?Name=NeutonMower2Step
They looked so neat... even could get an attachment that would be an edger.
I have 2 acres so decided that I better not get one but they looked great
for a small yard. I have a small Lawnboy... that is very old but still runs
great ( with a little tune up every once in a while) and a big riding Toro.
I had a Dixon riding mower and loved it, traded it for the Toro. I miss the
Dixon!

HI Andrea-
I got mine at a "mower exchange" sponsored by the local electric
company- but they sell them at Home Depot and everywhere. They are more
expensive than gas mowers (about $350 I think), but you never buy gas
anymore and it is so nice to just push a button to start it and not to
inhale gas fumes while mowing the lawn. It is also way quieter than a
gas mower.
I don't know how long the charge lasts, because I've never used it up
yet! I think they recommend them for lawns 1/3 acre or less- but you
should check they may have changed something since I got mine. The
mower stays plugged in when you aren't using it, so it is always ready
charged, whenever you are.
